 Lá Glantacháin
🧹️🏫🍂🗑

Slán le Rang a 6
​(2015-2023)

Rang 3 ar News2Day
📺🍃👨‍🏫🌻📚🌲🎥🌱📹

10ú Bealtaine 2023

​Tháinig ceamaraí RTÉ isteach sa scoil le taifead a dhéanamh ar R3A agus R3B. Bhí sceitimíní ar gach duine don lá-mhór agus bhaineamar an-taitneamh as an ócáid. Tá rang 3 ag déanamh a lán obair i mbliana leis an téama “Bithéagsúlacht”, ag iarraidh an ceathrú brat glas a fháil don scoil. Rinne siad mapa den ghnáthóg scoile agus phiocadar áit oiriúnach le plandaí a chuir. Chuireamar lus na gréine cúpla seachtain ó shin agus bhí orainn iad a bhogadh go dtí an gairdín lasmuigh, toisc go raibh siad ag fás. Chuireamar crann dair nua sa scoil freisin. Beimid ar news2day ar RTÉ 2 ar 22ú Bealtaine.
 
The RTÉ cameras came into the school to record rang 3A and rang 3B. Everyone was excited for the big day and we enjoyed the experience. Third class are doing a lot of work this year with the theme of “Biodiversity”, trying to achieve the fourth green flag for the school. They made a habitat map of the school and picked a suitable spot to plant. We planted sunflowers a few weeks ago and we had to move them to the garden outside as they were growing so much. We also planted a new oak tree In the school too. We will be on news2day on RTÉ 2 on 22nd May. 

​6ú Bealtaine 2023

​Míle buíochas le gach éinne a chabhraigh ar lá glantacháin na scoile. Rinne an-obair timpeall na scoile.

Many thanks to everyone who volunteered to help us on the school cleaning day. There was great work carried out.

27ú Márta 2023

Bhí an-áthas orainn fáilte a chuir roimh John Spillane nuair a sheinn sé dúinn i halla na scoile mar chuid de Sheachtain na Gaeilge. Chan sé go leor amhráin Gaeilge dúinn agus bhain gach éinne a bhí i láthair an-sult as.

We were delighted to welcome John Spillane to the school as he performed in the school hall as part of Seachtain na Gaeilge. He performed a number of Irish songs for the students. The concert was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone in attendance.

Píobaire sa Scoil

4ú Aibreán 2022

Bhí tráthnóna deas ag na páistí inniu nuair a tháinig Niamh, píobaire áitiúil óg ó Fhionnghlas, ar chuairt chuig an scoil. Bhí Niamh ag labhairt le páistí Rang 3 go 6 faoin bpíopaire cáiliúil Séamus Ennis a rugadh agus a chónaí i bhFionnghlas fadó. Sheinn sí cúpla port in éineacht lena máthair Majella, Múinteoir Ruaidhrí, Finnán (R6), Cormac (R5) agus Nayara (R3). 

​The children had a lovely afternoon today as Niamh, a local young piper from Finglas, visited the school. Niamh spoke to the children from R3-6 about Séamus Ennis, a famous piper who was born and lived in Finglas many years ago. She played a number of piping tunes accompanied by her mother Majella, Múinteoir Ruaidhrí, Finnán (R6), Cormac (R5) and Nayara (R3). 

Turas Scoile 2022

Boinéid na Cásca 2022

Tháinig an-chuid boinéid na cásca isteach ar an Déardaoin - bhí sé thar a bheith deacair buaiteoir a roghnú. Loads of the children brought in Easter bonnets on Thursday. It was very difficult to pick a winner. 

Charlie Bird sa Scoil

Foireann na mBuachaillí i bPáirc an Chrócaigh

15 Meitheamh 2022

Bhí ócáid den scoth againn sa scoil inniu nuair a tháinig Charlie Bird ar cuairt chuig an scoil. Bhíomar ag céilliúradh an brat glas a bhronnadh ar an scoil le déanaí as ucht an iarracht atá déanta ag na daltaí taisteal ar scoil ar bhealach atá níos cosantaí don timpeallacht. D’iarramar ar Charlie teacht chun an brat a ardú linn agus táimid an-bhuíoch gur tháinig sé féin, Claire agus Tiger. Táimid cinnte go mbeidh cuimhne ag na páistí ar an ócáid seo ar feadh blianta fada. Míle buíochas do Mhúinteoirí Breandán agus Séamus agus na daltaí ar an gcoiste glas a rinne sár-obair i rith na bliana leis an brat glas a bhaint amach. 

The school hosted an amazing event today as Charlie Bird visited the school. We celebrated our new green flag which was awarded to the school for the students’ efforts in travelling to school in more environmentally friendly ways. We asked Charlie to accompany us in raising the flag and we are so grateful that himself, Claire and Tiger obliged. The students hugely enjoyed his visit and we are sure it will be a memory that will stay with them for many years. Many thanks to Múinteoirí Breandán and Séamus and the students on the Coiste Glas who put in a huge amount of work this year in order to obtain the new green flag.

Seomra Céadfach / Sensory Room

​Ba mhaith linn anseo i nGaelscoil Uí Earcáin ár mbuíochas a gabháil leis na tuismitheoirí agus na páistí ar fad a chabhraigh linn airgead a bhailiú don siúlóid urraithe agus crannchur na Nollag. Tá Seomra Céadfach álainn againn anois. Cabhróidh an seomra seo leo siúd is mó a bhfuil gá acu le cúnamh, páistí atá ar Speictream an Uathachais, paistí le riachtanais céadfacha agus daoine eile a bhfuil riachtanais mhothúchánacha agus iompar acu trí thimpeallacht shábháilte spreagúil a chur ar fáil.


We would like to thank all the parents and children for raising funds during the Sponsored walk in October and the Christmas raffle for our new sensory room. This room will help those most in need of assistance; those on the Autistic Spectrum, children with sensory needs and others with emotional and behavioural needs by providing a safe and stimulating environment.

​ 7 Meitheamh 2022 

Bhí lá mór ag an scoil i bPáirc an Chrócaigh inniu nuair a d’imir foireann iománaíochta na mbuachaillí sa chraobh Dublin Trophies. Faraor, níor éirigh linn an bua a fháil ach d’imir na buachaillí thar barr agus táimid an-bhródúil astu.  
The school had a huge day in Croke Park today as the boy’s hurling team competed in the final of the Dublin Trophies competition. Unfortunately, the boys narrowly missed out on victory but they turned in an amazing performance and we are so proud of their achievements this year. 

Comhghairdeas le Cormac!
